Tony Lucca - Melancholy Collar lyrics

rate me

took that melancholy collar off my throat.

took some time to fix this hole here

at the bottom of my boat.

still sailing through these stormy seas

i glorify my tragedies

and add it to the love song i just wrote.

bittersweet this self pity of mine.

i try so hard to shake it

still i'm clinging to it all the time.

that which doesn't kill me

maybe someday might fulfill me.

for now it's just the pain i seem to find.

everyday i tell myself i'm sane

like a water color painter painting in the rain.

everyday she flows right through my veins

and my song remains the same.

find it hard to look most people in the eye

trying to be that simple, subtle, sentimental kind of guy.

i make a good impression

save my constant coy confession.

self-deprecation rarely tells a lie.

everyday i tell myself i'm sane

like a firefly dancer dancing in the rain.

everyday she flows right through my veins

and my song remains the same.

now just once i'd like to see the other side.

and find out why i feel this need to constantly try to hide.

still i've gotta make it home and realize that i'm alone,

cook myself a great big plate of pride.

everyday i tell myself i'm sane

like a water color painter painting in the rain.

everyday she flows right through my veins

and my song remains the same.

hey now every day

like a watercolor painter in the rain

there she goes flowin through my veins

and my song remains the same

said my song remains the same now

yeah and i've got no one to blame

why my songs be soundin' all the same

i don't know
